The tutorReads it, and writes it up plainly in one document you keep.
The studentKeeps reading through June and July.

The studentKeeps showing up.
The tutorWrites down what changed, and sends it home.
Packages are bought in blocks, one subject at a time. Reading and math do not have to be bought together.
Start with the free assessment →The studio
It is a small studio on purpose. One student at a time, in a room where nothing is being performed for anybody else.
We keep the room quiet and the numbers small. If a kid reads slowly, we read slowly. If a kid freezes on a math problem, we go back until we find the piece that is missing. There is no audience here.
How it works
You bring your kid. We read a little, work a few problems, and ask what school has been like lately.
You leave with a short, plain note on where the hard part is and what we would work on first.
Packages are bought in blocks, one subject at a time. If tutoring is not the right fit, we will tell you.
A written progress report comes home while you are still working with us, not only at the end.
Parent progress reports
Every package includes a written report, every month, while the work is happening. It is short and specific, and it answers the question you are already asking at the dinner table. For homeschooling families it becomes a record you can keep.
Included with tutoring packages. Homeschool portfolio reviews are written up the same way, as one plain document you keep.
Written by your tutor, sent home every month.
